Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important safety and operating instruc-
tions for the DC9310 and DC9320 battery chargers.
•  Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on charger, battery pack, 
and product using battery pack.
DANGER: Electrocution hazard. 120 volts are present at charging terminals. Do not probe with 
conductive objects. Electric shock or electrocution may result.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may 
result.
CAUTION: Burn hazard.  To reduce  the  risk  of  injury, charge  only  DeWALT rechargeable 
batteries. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
CAUTION: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged in to the power supply, the 
exposed  charging  contacts  inside  the  charger  can  be  shorted  by  foreign  material.  Foreign 
materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any 
buildup  of  metallic  particles  should  be  kept  away  from  charger  cavities.  Always  unplug  the 
charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger before 
attempting to clean.
•  DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in 
this manual. The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together. 
•  These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging DeWALT rechargeable 
batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
•  Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
•  Pull  by  plug  rather  than  cord  when  disconnecting  charger.  This  will  reduce  risk  of 
damage to electric plug and cord.
•  Make  sure  that  cord  is  located  so  that  it  will  not  be  stepped  on,  tripped  over,  or 
otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
•  Do  not  use  an  extension  cord  unless  it  is  absolutely  necessary.  Use  of  improper 
extension cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock, or electrocution.
•  An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for 
safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that 
is 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make 
up the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at  least the minimum wire 
size.

•  Do not place any object on top of charger or place the charger on a soft surface that 
might block the ventilation slots and result in excessive internal heat. Place the charger 
in a position away from any heat source. The charger is ventilated through slots in the top and 
the bottom of the housing.
•  Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug.
•  Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise 
damaged in any way. Take it to an authorized service center.
•  Do not disassemble charger; take it to an authorized service center when service or 
repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution 
or fire.
•  Disconnect  the  charger  from  the  outlet  before  attempting  any  cleaning.  This  will 
reduce the risk of electric shock. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.
•  NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.
•  The charger is designed to operate on standard 120V household electrical power. Do 
not attempt to use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the vehicular charger.

Introduction
The DC9310 and DC9320 battery chargers (Fig. 1) are designed to charge DeWALT battery 
packs    with  voltage from  7.2  up  to  18  volts  in  about one  hour.  These  chargers require  no 
adjustment and are designed to be as easy as possible to operate. Simply place your battery 
pack into a receptacle of a plugged in charger and it will automatically charge the pack. Consult 
the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of chargers and battery packs.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable surface where it will not 
cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will stand upright on 
the battery pack but may be easily knocked over. 
Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Packs
When ordering  replacement  battery  packs,  be  sure  to  include  catalog  number  and  voltage. 
Consult the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of chargers and battery packs.
The  battery  pack  is not  fully  charged  out  of  the  carton.  Before  using  the battery pack  and 
charger, read the safety instructions below. Then follow charging procedures outlined.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
•  Do not charge or use battery in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of 
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or removing the battery from the charger may 
ignite the dust or fumes.
•  NEVER  force  battery  pack  into  charger.  DO  NOT  modify  battery  pack  in  any  way 
to  fit  into  a  non-compatible  charger  as  battery  pack  may  rupture  causing  serious 
personal injury. Consult the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of batteries and 
chargers. 
•  Charge the battery packs only in DeWALT chargers.
•  DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
•  Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may 
reach or exceed 105°F (40˚) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
DANGER: Electrocution hazard. Never  attempt  to open  the  battery  pack for  any  reason. 
If battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into charger. Do not crush, drop or 
damage battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow, 
been dropped, run over or damaged in any way (i.e., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, 
stepped on).  Electric  shock  or electrocution  may  result.  Damaged  battery  packs  should  be 
returned to service center for recycling.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable surface where it will not 
cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will stand upright on 
the battery pack but may be easily knocked over.
NOTE: Battery storage and carrying caps are provided for use whenever the battery   
is out of the tool or charger. Remove cap before placing battery in charger or tool.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so that metal objects 
can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do  not place battery in 
aprons,  pockets,  tool  boxes,  product  kit  boxes,  drawers,  etc.,  with  loose  nails, 
screws,  keys,  etc.  without  battery  cap.  Transporting  batteries  can  possibly 
cause  fires  if  the  battery  terminals  inadvertently  come  in  contact  with  conductive 
materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation 
Hazardous  Material  Regulations  (HMR)  actually  prohibit  transporting  batteries  in  commerce 
or on  airplanes  (i.e., packed in  suitcases  and  carry-on luggage) UNLESS they are  properly 
protected  from  short  circuits.  So  when  transporting  individual  batteries,  make  sure  that  the 
battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and 
cause a short circuit.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR NICKEL CADMIUM (NiCd) OR  
NICKEL METAL HYDRIDE (NiMH)
•  Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn 
out. The battery pack can explode in a fire.
•  A small leakage of liquid from the battery pack cells may occur under extreme usage 
or temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure. 
  However, if the outer seal is broken:
a. and the battery liquid gets on your skin, immediately wash with soap and water for several 
minutes.
b. and the battery liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 
10 minutes and seek immediate medical attention. (Medical note: The liquid is 25-35% 
solution of potassium hydroxide.)
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM ION (LI-ION)
•  Do not incinerate the battery  pack  even  if  it  is  severely  damaged  or  is  completely 
worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created 
when lithium ion battery packs are burned.
•  If  battery  contents  come  into  contact  with  the  skin,  immediately  wash  area  with 
mild soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for  
15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is 
composed of a mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
•  Contents of opened battery cells may cause respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If 
symptoms persists, seek medical attention.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame. 
The RBRC™ Seal
The  RBRC™  (Rechargeable  Battery  Recycling  Corporation)  Seal  on  the   
nickel cadmium,  nickel metal hydride or  lithium ion batteries (or battery  packs) 
indicate that the costs to recycle these batteries (or battery packs) at the end of 
their useful life have already been paid by DeWALT. In some areas, it is illegal to 
place spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or  lithium ion batteries in the 
trash  or  municipal  solid  waste  stream  and  the  RBRC  program provides  an  environmentally 
conscious alternative.
RBRC™ in cooperation with DeWALT and other battery users, has established programs in 
the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal 
hydride or lithium ion batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources 
by returning the spent nickel cadmium and nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium ion 
batteries to an authorized DeWALT service center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may 
also contact your local recycling center for information on where to drop off the spent battery.
